Pros
Besides the owner, Opterus employees are kind and enjoyable to work with. Many employees are very passionate about the technology they’re developing.
Cons
The owner, Tom Murphey, makes this a very toxic work environment. He is a bully with a history of abusive conduct including yelling and cursing at his employees for no reason. If you want to work for someone who excessively monitors, criticizes, or nitpicks your work, then apply to Opterus. On the other hand, if this repeated intentional behavior that degrades, humiliates, or embarrasses the recipient sounds unbearable then stay far away. Consider this evidence – since January 2024 the company has had a 35% turnover rate within a six-month span! To make matters worse, this high turnover rate is not uncommon, but seems to happen every year. Routinely people are either fired or intentionally made so miserable they quit. Unfortunately employees don't seem to leave often due to their own choice.
